3 bed detached house

A wonderful opportunity to make this house your home. Offered to the market for the first time since 1958, this elevated detached family home has some of the best views in Penzance spanning the town, harbour and Mounts Bay. It has Upvc double glazing and gas central heating but has reached a point where it would benefit from a programme of works to bring it into the 21st Century. There is a detached garage to the rear with workshop beneath and gardens to front and rear. The loft space offers further potential, subject to any necessary consents being obtained. Chain free with vacant possession and available for immediate viewing.
